Kevin's POV

These past two days, I haven't seen Ella at all. Camila mentioned she goes up the mountain to gather herbs at 5:30 in the morning and returns at midnight. I didn't say anything; I knew she was avoiding me. Ever since I exposed Ella's true identity, our relationship has been strained.

A Cold War can't last too long. I need to change this situation quickly. On the third night, I waited for Ella in the yard, but she didn't show up. Her room's window was dark, indicating she hadn't returned that night. I grew anxious and went to knock on her door.

"Kevin, has Ella gone missing again?" Eric asked.

Me: She probably hasn't. Once she calms down a bit, she'll be willing to listen to my explanation.

Eric: When will that be? I hate waiting, waiting is too long!

Eric paced impatiently in my mind, furrowing my brow.

Me: I hate waiting too, but we need to give her some space. She probably can't accept being exposed like that.

Eric: What do we do then? The deed is done. Kevin, I have to

    Ella‘s POVI curled up, hugging myself. Although I didn't want to admit it, deep down, I missed Kevin. But I was afraid of repeating the mistakes of five years ago, afraid of being hurt again. So, in order not to be an Omega waiting to be bullied and abandoned, I had to move forward.Cheer up, my little wolf. You're not a worthless mute Omega; you will become a great female warrior.I remembered my mother's encouragement, and my eyes turned red instantly. If she were still alive, she would surely support my decision.The next morning dawned bright as I stepped out into the estate. The housekeeper greeted me with a warm smile, handing me a set of dresses neatly folded."These are for you, my dear. As the new physician, it's time you dress the part. Alpha Oscar likes his staff to be presentable," she said with a kind twinkle in her eyes.I nodded appreciatively, holding the dresses close.The fabric felt luxurious, and I couldn't help but wonder how different my life had become in such

    Ella’s POV After Clara left, I returned to my workstation, I felt very nervous l as I surrounded myself with the unfamiliar medical equipment. As a pharmacist dedicated to herbal remedies, this was a drastic departure from my usual realm of natural healing. Wow, Ella, these devices look advanced and are expensive. Lucy said. I nodded. Look, that Mortar and Pestle can actually automatically grind herbs, much more convenient than when you used to grind herbs with stones. Oh, be careful not to touch it, otherwise, if it breaks, we can't afford to compensate with our salary. Lucy reminded, with exaggerated tone. I laughed: Lucy, you really look like a country bumpkin now, haha. Come on, Ella, don't laugh at me. I just don't want to hear Camila's nagging. You know, she's a bit obsessed with money. Me: Okay, Okay, I see. I spent hours pouring over thick manuals, my brow furrowed in concentration. The terminology was alien, and I found myself longing for the comforting familiarity

    Ella’s POV I turned around and saw a tall manf wearing a white shirt. Our eyes met, and he smiled. "Anna, it's really you. I heard you took a position here." I was stunned. Henry Nelson, the hybrid son of Alpha Oscar, Why was he here so late? And did he just see me drop blood for the spider? Henry's demeanor was completely different from his brother Luke's arrogant and domineering attitude. He was very refined, always dressed in well-tailored shirts, with a warm and inviting smile. His eyes showed sincere kindness. He had amber-colored eyes, well-groomed hair, and despite his noble status, he was approachable and beloved by the Blue River Pack. That's also why Luke hated him and liked to tease him. "Henry, what are you doing here?" I pocketed the glass bottle and stood up from the chair. "Anna, you can speak now!" "Uh, yes, that happened not long ago." "Awesome." Henry walked towards me with excitement, then stopped, speaking sincerely, "Anna, I never imagined your voice c

    Ella’s POVComing to the laboratory for a week, I have finished reading all the equipment manuals, and with the help of Lily, Holly, and Sophie, I have completed the operations, although I am not very skilled yet."Anna, your learning ability is really strong. You caught on in just a week, you know? I started studying medicine at the age of 17 and took three years to understand those complex medical theories and equipment operations. Now I completely believe you must have topped the entrance exam," Holly said with a hearty sip of her drink, teasingly.Holly's family opens pubs, and her passion for drinking rivals that of Camila. I guess if they were to meet, they could definitely become drinking buddies."Thank you, Holly. Actually, I've been studying medicine since I was 7," I replied, shyly scratching my head."But this is your first time in this field, right? I guess you've been more into herbal medicine, and as medicine has developed with the community, pharmacists who are skilled

    Ella’s POV "This is terrifying. Who could have used such a malicious method to kill our guards?" Holly asked. "Could it be the werewolves from the Black Moon clan?" Sophie added, her voice trembling. "Girls, detecting isn't our job. As physicians, our duty is to use our expertise to determine the cause of death of the guards, to prevent new werewolves from falling victim to the same fate," Dr. Helena said sternly. "After the examination just now, do you have any other findings?" "Well... only the DNA of 5 missing werewolves was detected on that batch of ashes, and nothing else was found. Under the microscope, the bodies of the werewolves seemed to have been melted by something," Lily said. "So, perhaps other missing werewolves might still be alive?" Holly asked. "Not necessarily. The fact that the perpetrator effortlessly abducted our guards from our heavily guarded and concealed forest, leaving no trace, indicates a meticulously planned operation," Beta Aaron interjected, then

    Ella's POV "Stop, stop now, everyone, don't go any deeper into the forest!" I shouted desperately, hoping it wasn't too late. Dr. Helena and Holly halted, looking at me with confusion, but Ada and the other soldiers seemed oblivious, continuing forward, and the ringing grew louder. "Dr. Helena, Holly, quickly stop them, don't go any further! Can't you hear the bells? It's the bewitching sound of the illusion grass!" "What is illusion grass?" Holly asked. I didn't have time to answer her. I knocked out the two soldiers closest to me; their vacant eyes clearly showed they had lost their senses. "Oh my, Anna, what are you doing? Are you out of your mind?" I was frantic. "I'm not joking. They've lost consciousness. Knock them out now, or we'll all die here!" Dr. Helena gave me a deep look and swiftly knocked out the remaining wolf soldiers. Holly looked at Dr. Helena in astonishment, then gritted her teeth at me. "Anna, you better be right about this, or I won't spare you." She

    Kevin’s POV Returning to the hotel, I carefully placed Ella on the bed, and Liam instinctively closed the door to the room. I watched Ella sleeping peacefully, her steady breathing calming my inner turmoil. A week of longing had kept me from getting too close to her, but now I found myself gently tucking strands of her hair behind her ear, my gaze drifting to the furrow of her brow, and I smiled. "Ella, your brow is becoming more and more like your mother's. You've inherited her beauty." With just the two of us in the room, her scent intoxicated me. I leaned in to smell her neck, a blend of pear and faint lemon, causing my heart to race. Kevin, this past week we've missed her so much. Our mate not only inherited her mother's beauty but also her mother's courage and wit. Eric whispered softly, as if afraid to wake Ella. "Yes," I replied, sinking into memories. "I was wrong before. Ella is definitely not a worthless Omega. She's brave. She saved Hunter Zachary's son by giving hi

    Kevin's POV Kevin, you missed the chance to ask Ella about that necklace. Eric muttered discontentedly. I sighed helplessly, "I also wanted to ask, but didn't you feel that Ella wasn't very willing to talk to me? We had an argument last week, and she must feel awkward seeing me. If I were to ask her now, 'Which man gave you that necklace?' or 'Did another man propose to you?' Do you think that would be appropriate?" Eric pondered for a moment, tilting his head in confusion, What's wrong with that? Kevin, love needs to be spoken out loud. If you're not straightforward, Ella will run off with another male wolf. I even tried to communicate with her wolf, only to be rejected. It's really sad. You know, that Luke lives near Luna Manor. I rubbed my forehead in frustration; sometimes, talking to wolves is really tiring. "Yes, they're still mad at us. Just think, if you and I had a big fight, and you saw me extremely annoyed, not even wanting to talk to me. Yet, I always persist in cha

    Maya's POVI looked back at the door with panic as I packed my stuff into a bag. I had to leave here soon if I wanted to stay alive. Those sly girls. I shouldn't have trusted them. They had gone to the palace to check out my story and ended up telling the palace guards what I had told them and now, those ones were at the door threatening to break it down if I didn't open up and follow them to the palace at the order of the alpha's father."Open this door, Maya. We know you are in there." The head guard roared.I shook my head, forcing myself to remain calm through the hysteria I felt. I wouldn't be tricked. They couldn't have known I was in here. I had seen them from afar before they got to the door and rushed to my bedroom to pack my stuff. I had been moving silently through the bedroom as I packed my stuff and dumped them into a travel bag. There was no way they could have heard me even with their supernatural hearing."Maya, by the order of the alpha, we demand that you open this d

    Melody's POV"How did you find me?" I asked once we were back to safety."I got to where we were to meet but didn't find you. I was looking for you with Neo and Nick when I heard you scream and knew something was wrong. I called dad and we traced your scent." Nathan said.I shook my head. Everything he said was confusing. He couldn't have heard me when I was far away. How could he have traced my scent when he didn't have a dog with him?""You brought a dog?" I asked."A dog?" Nick asked, looking confused."You said you traced my scent. Didn't you do that with a dog?"The boys looked at one another and laughed. "I thought you just heard dad say we were werewolves."My eyes rounded with surprise. I wondered how many surprises I was going to have to deal with today. "He wasn't kidding. I thought he was only trying to scare the witch.""My dad doesn't make empty threats."I sucked in a breath. "You are really werewolves? Can you prove it?"The boys looked unsettled.

    Melody's POV"Why didn't you use the drug I gave you?" She asked.I frowned, wondering what she was talking about. "Which drug?"She snorted. "The drug I gave the other day when you complained of headaches.""I told you I used it.""You lied to me that day and I knew it. If you had used the drug, you would have been dead in the next five minutes after using it."I went pale. "I'm glad I didn't use it.""You left me no choice but to do this. I was trying to make your death painless but I guess you love pain." She smiled."Why do you want to kill me?" I didn't understand her. How could a little girl like her think of killing me?"Why do you hate sweets?""It's bad for me.""Good." She cackled. "I want to kill you because you are bad for me. You can't be allowed to grow up. You would ruin my plans.""How can you know what would happen to me in the future?""Because I know." She smirked and right before my eyes, started changing until she became a grown woman with gnarled fingers and an u

    Melody's POVThe school trip was boring, more than I thought it would be. It wasn't that I had great hopes for it but I hated how I was disappointed.This wasn't it. The teachers should have just given us a free day and told us to stay at home if they didn't want to teach today rather than bringing us to a place as dry as this.The other kids were playing a game to pass the time but I wasn't interested in it. The game was boring to me as well. I stayed off from them so they wouldn't drag me into their boring game against my wish."Why are you here alone?" Nathan asked as he walked towards me.He was alone and I wondered where his brothers were."I was bored. This place is dry." I replied. "I want to go home."He chuckled. "I know. Me too. I can't believe I was looking forward so much to this.""I wasn't." I confessed.He nodded. "Too bad that we can't go home until the teachers say we can.""Why don't we play a game together?" I asked, gearing with excitement as the idea popped into m

    Nathan's POVEve was back immediately the teacher left. "Aren't you excited about the trip? There is so much we can get done."I snorted. So much like what? The girl was too strange for my liking. I had been focused on the dangers of the school trip and didn't remember that Eve was here until she popped her unwanted face again.She turned to Melody, ignoring my snort. "How does your head feel now? Have you taken the drug?" She asked."Yes, my head feels better now. Thank you.""You used the drug?" Eve asked, confirming she had heard right."Yes." Melody lied. The drug was on the ground, under her shoe."I didn't see you take it.""Were you watching her?" I frowned."I was worried about her." Eve replied."I took it immediately you turned your back and walked back to your seat. I slipped it into my mouth then."Eve stared at Melody for a long time, looking as if she didn't believe her. Eventually, she nodded to herself and walked back to her seat without a word.I frowned. "You should

I felt like I was finally living after all these days of feeling dead and numb.Who could have believed that it was Kevin and Ella who made me go numb and dead inside and it was also because of them that I would feel alive again?I was excited. This was my chance to get back at Kevin for breaking my heart and Ella for stealing the position that belonged to me.I loved karma. I couldn't believe it was finally working for me after all these years and deciding to fight on my behalf. They shouldn't have messed with me. In Kevin's next life, I hoped he would think twice before hurting another female.The only person I felt for in this revenge scheme of mine was Liam but I didn't care much about him as much as I cared about what I was to do. He was going to be affected as he was always by Kevin's side and also going to be heartbroken as he was an annoyingly loyal be

    Neo's POVMelody had to be kidding me. How could she have brought another person into our circle? This wasn't the time to get friendly with strangers. She didn't even know this girl for up to a day and she was already being friends with her and having her eat with us. I couldn't believe her guts. She was unbelievable.For all I knew, this girl was not an ordinary girl. I forced myself to calm down, reminding myself that she didn't know of the dangers that lay ahead of her. She didn't know that she had to be careful and was being her usual bubbly self. It wasn't her fault that I had begun to suspect everyone and everyone that crossed my path. It wasn't her fault at all.I looked at Eve and wondered if she was oblivious to how my brothers and I felt about her or was just trying to be stubborn. She would have known since that we weren't open to her being here with our scowls and I thought that she would have excused herself.Wouldn't it be better for her to leave and eat alone than eat h

    Melody's POV"Can we eat lunch together?" She suddenly asked, just before we got to class."I... I uh..." I didn't know what to say. I didn't know how to tell her that I already made plans for lunch so it wouldn't seem like I was trying to reject her."I am not trying to do anything." She began.I frowned, wondering what she meant by that. I never said she was trying to do anything.She continued. "The thing is, I have a lot of friends at the school where I transferred from and I'm not used to eating alone. You seem kind and moreover, you were the first person to smile at me here and that was why I thought that we could be friends. I only asked if we could eat lunch together because I already see you as a friend."I sighed. She was extremely chatty but I preferred that to her crying. I understood what she was trying to say and found myself nodding in agreement before thinking it through. I knew how much it sucked to eat alone in a large gathering of people. It was awkward feeling to f

I asked them as we saw one another in the morning and moved towards the school entrance."Take care of yourself, kids." Uncle Liam said and waved as he turned and walked away from us."Should we hang out in the garden?" Neo suggested. "I love the smell of flowers.""Me too." I agreed, smiling at them. "I also love flowers." I also loved being in the garden with the boys. They knew so much about flowers that I always learn something new from them. I wondered where they had learned about flowers from.The bell rang to signify the start of the classes and I watched as our homeroom teacher walked in, with a new student by her side.The girl seemed shy and I felt my heart move towards her.
